Kick Off Campaign 111-
Pickering's first United Appeal campaign got
-off to a good start last Thursday evening as
13 men and women met to finalize a program
for the October campaign.
UA President John Coates together with co-
chairman John Kruger got ideas from the group
and decided on ward co-ordinators to spearhead
action in wards 3, 4, and 5.
Harry Cook is chairman of the southern Pic-
kering canvass and Bruce Stubbington is chair-
man of the Residential canvass.
John Pavey is director of campaign material.
Others present included Alex Keith, Councillor
Sherman Scott, Peter Gallagher, Terry John-
son, Ken Matheson, Vera Bonnehill, Bill Earle
and Deputy Reeve George Ashe.

of the large United Appeal flags.
One of the features of the UA campaign will

Opinion
No Begging Please
Sir:
Sweet are the uses of adversity. It amazes
me that our politicians should go begging, cap
in hand, like a pack of whipped schoolboys,
to the Government of the United States asking
to be excluded from that country's 10 per cent
import surtax.
We receive an abundance of blessings from the
United States on the one hand and on the other,
with unctuous constancy, we criticize them for
their racial strife, crime, immorality and
foreign policy, then, when they decide to help
themselves for a change we cry, "How about
us ?"
Well, how about us? Although our politicans
set us the worst examples possible, let us draw
in our belts and profit from our adversity. Now
is the heaven sent opportunity to learn the true
lessons of husbandry and economy.
Let us freeze our own prices and wages, and
as a gesture of goodwill, let our political
masters reduce their salaries -- for a change.
One too often hears the banal parrot -cry that
Canada cannot go it alone because we must
have the United States capital and permission
for everything we attempt. This chicken-hear-
ted attitude is entirely false. Obedience to God,
courage and self-sacrifice can achieve all we
desire. Backward, courageous Mexico has al-
ready set this country an example. Mexicans
do not permit American control of their country
and industry.
Canada, today, does not need an Ameri-
can nursemaid. Canada needs the historical
'spirit of Agincourt' and a manly leader
of the self-sacrificing mag nificenceof aChurch-
ill. Such a man exists. Let us encourage him
to ride forward.
Meanwhile, grim adversity faces us. Let us
embrace it and learn all we can from that in-
exorable master.
Your cavalier,
David Stewart,

Standard Sizes
The Canada Standard Size (CSS) label on
children's clothing means that the garments
conform with established dimensional standards
based on sizing according to body measurement
rather than age.
The Consumers' Association of Canada (CAC)
was instrumental in having a Canadian Govern-
ment Specifications Board committee set up in
1952 and, since that time, Association members
have taken an active part in the work of the
committee in co-operation with other interes-
ted groups representing manufacturers, retai-
lers and government. A combined CAC and De-
partment of Consumer and Corporate Affairs
national survey in 1970 on CSS interviewed
the mothers of some 5,000 children and ob-
tained the opinions of 320 retailers.
Thirty per cent of the mothers had trouble
buying children's clothes that fit. The most
common problems were badly proportioned
garments and lack of size uniformity. Only
57 per cent of consumers had ever bought
CSS garments but those who had expressed
unqualified support of it and indicated that it
was not sufficiently available. Retailers also
expressed approval (about 70 per cent of those
surveyed) but they too had very little infor-
mation on CSS.
Manufacturers may now apply for a licence
to use the CSS label and 190 manufacturers
in Canada are licenced to use it. If consu-
mers demand Canada Standard Size garments,
retailers can and will supply them. Purse -
The spirit of carnival and the fun of costumes was evident at the St. Lawrence Hall last Friday
night as Metro citizens concluded a week -1 -)ng fun time both on the island and on Yunge Street.
That swining Mexican couple is none other than Alderman Tony O'Donahue and his lovely wife.
The trio on the right had more funthan anyone at the costume ball with their exaggerated figures
and general kidding. (Photos - Bob Watson).
Vacation In Ontario by blah Lymburner
Mrs. Lymburner is chairman of the Women's
Advisory Committee, Ontario Department of
Trade and Development
To most of us, the grass is always greener in
the next field. Obviously, many Canadians feel
this way in deciding where to spend their holi-
days.
There are, of course, important economic rea-
sons why Ontarians should consider Canadafirst
for their vacations. But that's about the last
appeal I would make in urging Ontarians tocon-
sider their own province first.
My main reason is that Ontario has so much
going for it -- a vacationland indeed, for all
seasons. Perhaps we tend to take Ontario's
countless attractions for granted, but just lis-
ten to the glowing, and sometimes envious re-
ports that most visitors give Ontario, and you'll
get an entirely new slant on what our home
territory has to offer.
With more than 250,000 1 a k e s, 100 provincial
parks and unexcelled hunting and fishing. Ontario
holiday -making can mean either luxury living, or
getting away from it all. It is cottaging and sailing
hiking and skiing, canoeing and tobagganing. It
size leaflets containing measurement charts are
available to both consumers and retailers from
Box 99, Ottawa.
Standards were produced for some 75 items
of children's underwear and outerwear and the
charts have measurements for girls sizes 2
to 14X and boys 2 to 20.
The label contains an easily recognized coiled
tape measure showing the figures of two child-
ren with the words "Canada Standard Size"
included. Watch for the symbol.
The advent of CSS labelling is welcome news
for parents who have had the frustrating ex-
perience of finding out that garment sizing la-
bels do not always mean what they say and
that sizes can vary widely when produced by
different manufacturers. Should CSS for adults
be far behind?
But the CSS program is entirely voluntary
and needs consumer acceptance and demand to
make it a success. Consumers need to think of
children's clothes in terms of their body mea-
surements and buy on that basis. The CSS
label appears on both expensive and inexpen-
sive garments, so regardless of price range,
for better sizing in children's clothing look for
the Canada Standard Size label. If you can't
find it, ask for it.
If you have any questions on Canada Standard
Sizes, write to ' CSS", Consumers' Associa-
tion of Canada, 100 Gloucester St., Ottawa,
K2P UA4.
is relaxing at a hotel, motel or lodge, pitching
a tent in the stilled wilderness or organized camp
ground, or visiting restored historic siteswhich
preserve the province's pioneer and colonial
past.
According to the Department of Lands and For-
ests, you would have to live over 100 years to
see all of Ontario's provincial parks at the rate
of one park per summer_ It would take you from
tidewater on James Bay, to the historic voyageur
canoe routes.
At the service of visitors and residents alike in
planning an Ontario holiday, is the Department
of Tourism and Information. By writing to them
c/o Parliament Buildings, Toronto, and stating
your specific or general interests, you will re-
ceive abundant information on Ontario's tourist
regions, free of charge.
The department will also advise you on art
attractions, exhibitions and fairs, festivals, his-
toric sties, music and drama attractions,
museums, outdoor attractions. science at-
tractions and sports events. To assist you on
the road, the department also operates six of-
ficial Tourist Information Centres which are
open all year, and 11 others that are open from
mid-May until mid-September.
Thousands of Ontarians in all parts of the pro-
vince depend on tourism for their livelihood. By
conservative estimate, tourism is a $1,600
million industry in terms of spending by
residents and visitors to the province.
Against this, though, must be considered
Canada's travel trade imbalance. In 1970, for
instance, Canadian spent $1,454 million in for-
eign lands, while visitors to this country spent
$1,219 million.
The loss represents more than $235 million;
also lost were the rewards which acture from
travel to other provinces -- closer kinship among
Canadians, greater appreciation of Canada, and
the opportunities to nurture a stronger Canadian
identity from coast to coast.

An offer to purchase
lot 3 owned by the Pic-
kering Township in the
Martin subdivision on
Altona Road was tur-
ned down on the re-
commendation of the
Engineer by Pickering
Council in Committee
of the Whole on Monday
night.
Clerk Doug Plitz in-
dicated there were
originally three lots
deeded to the Town-
ship for parkland pur-
poses many years ago
two of which have since
been sold and the third,
which has a water
course through it, is
being sought by Mr. C.
Roach of 4 Martin's
Road.
Reeve John Williams
said it would get rid
of a "headache' if the
lot was sold and main-
tained by Mr. Roach,
but did not elaborate on
what the "headache"
was.
Councillor Don Kit -
,:hen's motion for any
action to be deferred
until a report could be
received from the
Parks and Recreation
Director on the re-
quirements for park-
land in that area, did
not get a seconder. He
said perhaps the
people are being short
changed on parkland in
that area, if two of the
three lots have already
been sold.
Councillor Jean Mc-
Pherson said she
thought she recalled
the money from the
sale of these two lots
was used for recrea-
tional purposes at the
local school. however,
she said, it was
several years ago now,
and that she couldn't
be sure.
Councillor Ron Cha-
tten's motion that the
offer be refused on
the recommendations
of the Engineer was
carried.

Tuesday 11 Noon
by Norman Cafik, llA.P.
The Department of The Solicitor General has
recently announced some new rules for in-
mates in federal penitentiaries. They have
been given authority to form Committees, with
power to make suggestions and to propose
ways to improve co-operation with manage-
ment in the operations of institutional pro-
grams, Solicitor General Jean-Pierre Goyer
announced today.
A new directive issued to all 32 federal
,penal institutions by Commissioner Paul Fa -
guy of the Canadian Penitentiary Service di-
rects that Inmates' Committees, elected by
the inmates in each institution, became opera-
tive on August 1st. The specific purposes of
these Committees are to:
(i) open tip better communications between
staff and inmates;
(ii) make suggestions on programs regarding
treatment and training; and
(iii) allow inmates to make a positive contri-
bution themselves in implementing and par-
ticipating in these activities.
"We recognize that committees of prisoners
elected by the inmate population can provide
a vital communcations link between the inmate
body and the prison administration. Until now
the only committees dealing with recreational
activities and community relations and we be-
lieve that the expansion of the areas of en-
deavour will be extremely valuable for all con-
cerned", said Mr. Goyer in making the announce-
ment.
Although no decision-making authority or ad-
ministrative powers are delegated to the Com-
mittees, they will, however, under the new
directive, "encourage, support and recommend
projects" for the general welfare of the in-
mates. Areas where Inmate Committees
will work with the administration include treat-
ment and training, recreation, inmate privi-
leges and community service projects.
One important aspect will be the active par-
ticipation, wherever possible, of the inmates
themselves in the implementation of some
of the suggestions they make.
Members of Inmate Committees will be elec-
ted twice a year by secret ballot from living
units, cell blocks and workshops to ensure
the widest and fairest representation of the
prison population. Committee meetings will
be held once a month. Recommendations and
suggestions will be forwarded to the warden
at the end of each meeting. In turn each in-
mate representative will be responsible for
informing the section of the inmate population
which he represents of Committee proceed-
ings and minutes will be placed on notice
boards.

SOCCER
Sun. Aug. 29th is "Soccer Jamboree Day" in
West Rouge. Starting at 1 p.m. at the West

There will also be a Tug -of -War and other

Reeve George Ashe and M.P.P. Bill Newman
have kindly consented to attend the Jamboree
and present trophies to the winners. Everyone
Is invited to come along and join the fun.
About 150 boys have played Soccer this sea-
son. In addition to the four House League
teams, West Rouge has had one Squirt, two
Mosquito, one Bantam, and one Pee Wee - a total
of five teams - playing in the Ajax -Pickering
Minor Soccer League, and it has been a good
'season for all.
RUMMAGE SALE
All right, ladies, summer is almost over and
soon comes the time to sort through out -grown
clothes and stuff once again as we prepare for
another season. Please don't toss everything out
in a burst of energy on the first cool day.
It it is wearable, usable and clean - the ladies
of Grace Presbyterian Church will be glad to
have it. Members of the Choir are holding the
Rummage Sale this year, and money raised
will be used for new gowns.
The Sale will take place on Sat. Oct. 16th in
the Church Hall, and there will be tables for
clothing, books, toys, household itemsandother
odds and ends. If that date sounds far away and
you are anxious to get rid of things in a hurry,
please call Lena Marshall, 282-6110; or Irene
Proudfoot, 284-4419. These good ladies will
take all contributions off your hands and store
them until October.
FINE. SWIMMER
Sincere Congratulations to Stephen Davey,
Rouge Hills Dr., who at just 10 years of age.
recently passed his Elementary Life Saving
Exams, and was presented with Certificate
and Badge. In March, just before his 10th
birthday, Stephen qualified as a Senior Swim-
mer.
From where we sit, this boy looks like a fu-
ture Olympic champion, and we wish him con-
tinued success in and out of the water.
VACA rIONERS
It is interesting to note the various means of
transportation used by vacationers these days,
and camping, one way or another, must be the
most popular all over the world. In our dif-
ferent excursions, we have noticed that nearly
all the best locations are reserved for camp
sites or trailer parks.
Home from holidays are Val and Ron McIn-
tyre and Ron, Jr.; and Vera and Jim McKay
and family, who enjoyed a camping trip in the
Bancroft area. They went by tent -trailer.
Also home are Shirley and Ted Samis, and
Denise and Chuck McDonald and their families
who had fun in charming Cape Cod. They enjoyed
sun, surf and deep-sea fishing; and they, too,
had tent -trailers.
Using a different form of transportation were
Jean and Bernie Boutet and family who took a
sailing trip through the Thousand Islands re-
gion, along with other members of the French-
man's Bay Yacht Club.

Jackie and Fred Woolley and family also
sailed. They were away for six weeks on an
extended voyage which included Montreal, Sorel
and other points in Quebec, as well as areas of
Ontario, New York and Vermont. They covered
about 1100 miles and went through a total of
62 locks in the St. Lawrence, Richelieu and
Hudson Rivers, Erie Canal, Lake Champlain
and Lake Ontario. Apart from a slightly
bent mast acquired going under a bridge which
was a little lower than they judged, the trip
was smooth sailing all the way.
Jeanne Perry and her sister-in-law, Mrs.
Shirley Wade, flew to the Bahamas and had a
wonderful time in Freeport. Pat and Fred
Stacey and family spent some time in New
York and Philadelphia. Among the highlights
of their vacation were seeing a Broadway
show and sightseeing.
Covering possibly more mileage than anyone
we have spoken to this year, were Mona and
:Mel Doyle who motored by camper -trailer
(a complete home on wheels) to Alaska. Their
fabulous journey would take pages to des-
cribe. After visiting Anchorage and other
cities and towns in Alaska, they travelled
down to coast to Bri t i sh Columbia, party by
trailer and partly by boat, and had several ad-
ditional boat trips from one point to another.
Among the many sights they enjoyed were the
Okanagan Valley in B.C. and the beautiful
Butchart Gardens in Victoria.
Many of our friends and neighbours went to
the Maritimes this year, and several to Europe.
Hope to have a few items to relate in the
coming weeks.
VOLLEY BALL
Don't forget Sat. Aug. 28th is the date for the
Exhibition Volley Ball game between West
Rouge and Pickering senior girls. This game
will be played at Sir John A. MacDonald School
Bay Ridges, starting at 11 a.m. Come out and
be pan of the Cheering Section for these lively
young ladies.
CANOE CLUB
The Canadian Canoe Championships were held
on Sat. Aug. 14th at Lake Banook, Dartmouth,
N.S., with 21 clubs participating.
The Quebec Canoe Club dominated the Re-
gatta, taking top honours in both Junior and
Senior divisions. They had 13 first place
winners and six national records. Final club
standings were Quebec - First with 175 points;
Banook Canoe Club of Dartmouth - Second with
58 points; and Mississauga - Third with 44.
West Rouge Canoe Club finished in 12th po-
sition. Silver medals were awarded to Steve
Coupland who placed Second in the Juvenile
C-1; and to the Junior C-4 team, consisting of
John Chretien, Craig Hillborn, Karl Korinek
and Doug Strong, who also placed Second in
their race. West Rouge can be very proud of
these boys for their fine efforts. Steve Coup -
land is a new Juvenile this year, having gradu-
ated from the Bantams.
In spite of the wet weather suffered by the
Maritimes in recent weeks, it was felt by all
who attended this regatta. that it was one of
the best ever held. Much credit is due all the
C.A.A. officials, both national and local, for the
tremendous organisation involved in the event.
The canoeing season is fast drawing to a
close, with the North American Championships
scheduled for Aug. 21st at Dartmouth, and
final canoeing events taking place at the Ca-
nadian National Exhibition on Aug. 28th. -
SICK LIST
Best "Get Well Soon" wishes to young Ron-
nie McIntyre who was a recent patient at
Scarborough Centenary Hospital where he
parted with his appendix.
HOCKEY
Believe it or not, in just a few weeks from
now the great Hockey Season will start again.
Yipes - didn't we just wind up the last one?
Anyway, while the rest of us have been
sweltering in the heat, the good guys in the
West Rouge and other Hockey associations,
have been planning ahead for next winter's
activities.
The Holy Redeemer Hockey Assn. has already
lined up sponsors, as well as most coaches,
managers and trainers. Registration for hoc-
key teams will take place on Sun. Aug. 29th
from 1 - 3 p.m. at Holy Redeemer School.
This association will hold a dance on Sat.
Sept. 25th at the Ajax Community Centre.
Ice time is being booked at the Don Beer
Arena, and all signs point to another active
hockey season in our area. Please watch for
further announcements.
VISITORS
Enjoying visitors from England this year
were Anne and Terry Sanford and family,
Rouge Hills Dr., who had as guests, Anne s
mother and dad, Mr. and Mrs. H.A. Gifford
from Leigh -on -Sea. Mr. and Mrs. Gifford had
a delightful holiday and were particularly im-
pressed with West Rouge.

UNITED FUND
Meetings have been held and plans made for
the 1971 Campaign of the Pickering United
Community Fund, which will get underway on
Oct. 2nd. Co-chairmen of the campaign are
John Coates and John Kruger, who are sup-
ported by a large group of prominent citizens
from all parts of Pickering.
During the month of September there will
be an extensive publicity drive which will in-
clude a large float in the History In Action
parade, speakers at various functions and
gatherings, and other events arranged for
the purpose of attracting attention to the im-
portance of this first United Fund Campaign
in Pickering.

Whitby Comments On Proposal
Having reviewed Alderman David Roten-
berg's recent proposal of a domed stadium,
Mayor Des Newman of Whitby said, "We are
pleased to see that our proposal for a ma-
jor recreation and sports facility to serve
Metropolitan Toronto and Southern Ontario has
created the kind of response contained in the
proposals advanced.
With respect to Alderman Rotenberg's pro-
posal, our concern of course would be with
the land acquisition costs over and above the
cost of the facility itself. Our committee hav-
ing thoroughly researched the feasibility of a
domed stadium decided that the expenditure
We feel that this would be even more cri-
tical if the facility is to depend on public
funds in light of the other crushing needs
such as housing and transportation facilities.
The Iroquois Park project, which incidently
is unanimously supported by the members
of the Council of the Town of Whitby, has been
greatly strengthened by the enormous res-
ponse to date and we would note the
more important aspects of the proposal:
I. The land is committed to the project
II. No direct government support by way of
grants for construction of the buildings has
been sought.
III. The complex is an assembly of facilities
and will not depend on one or two major
sports. In fact it is designed for professional
and amateur alike as well as making available
more passive recreational, facilities for the pub-
lic at large and will be a major tourist attrac-
tion with its provision of excellent convention
facilities.
IV. The operating expenditures will not be
the responsibility of the taxpayer.
V. The project contemplates expansion in
every respect.
VI. Farking facilities will be provided for
15,000 vehicles. From our research, rather
more than 10,000 parking spaces should be
provided and according to one of Metro's lead -
The response that the Iroquois Park concept
has received from sports, technical and finan-
cial fields has been overwhelming not only in
Canada but also in the U.S. This concept is
most consistent with the province's continuing
emphasis on an eastern thurst from Metro.
The recent proposals have accepted the basic
principle pointed out at our media reception that
the complex must serve some 5 million people of
whom the majority live outside the greater
Toronto area.
Our discussions with the federal government
have only emphasized again and again the fact
that no capital grants shall be available for
such a facility. We can not understand the recent
.reports, therefore, indicating federal support
for a domed stadium as this is most definitely
contrary to federal policy. We have however,
discussed the provision for a national fitness
program and it is our understanding that such
a program could be incorporated in whatever
facilities are constructed to serve Southern
Ontario.
We emphasize again our desire to co-operate
with the groups sponsoring the recent Toronto
proposals and are convinced that the public
interests can best be served through co-opera-
tion and welcome the suggestion made recently
by North York Alderman, Paul Godfrey.
We are convinced of the necessity for a
major sports and recreational facility to serve
the people in the area as contemplated in the
Iroquois Park proposal. We are dedicated to
proceeding with the project.
We are, however, not inflexible and wel-
come the recent public discussion on the mat-
ter".

rio's future energy requirements and supplies,
and to recommend policies and means to ensure
that these requirements are met.
The committee will be headed by Mr. Stuart
Clarkson, Deputy Minister of the Department
of Revenue, who has an excellent background in
the energy field, having served as Deputy
Minister in the Departments of Energy and Re-
sources Management and Economics and De-
velopment. The committee will include repre-
sentatives from the oil, natural gas, coal and
uranium industries, Ontario Hydro, Consumer
Interests, Task Force Hydro and the Federal
Department of Energy, Mines and Resources.
The Committee will be asked to consider the
following special areas of interest to the
Government and the people of Ontario:
Economic and social benefits from a com-
prehensive and co-ordinated energy policy.
Assurance of adequate low-cost energy sup-
plies to support sustained economic growth of
the province.
Relationship of energy requirements and uses to
provincial resource environmental and social
policies.
Integration of an energy policy with land use
management and development policies.
Relationship with the implication of energy
policies of governments of other province
of Canada, and the United States with regard
to the sources and supply routes and means
of energy.
Sources and forms of funding capital invest-
ments having regard to fiscal and financial
implications.
Relationship of energy policies with certain
aspects of a competition policy applicable to
the energy industry and regulatory policies.
Organizational structures and changes within
government and possibly the energy industry
to assure a continued surveillance of the ade-
quacy and effectiveness of existing energy poli-
cies and programs.

Social and Family Services Minister Tom
Wells has announced the assumption of res-
ponsibility by his Department for provision
of grants to private credit -debt counselling
agencies. These agencies provide remedial and
preventive counselling to people with money
management problems and act as intermediary
between debtor and creditor in arranging pay-
ment of debts. There are credit -debt counsel-
ling agencies in Toronto, London, Brantford,
Sarnia, Sault Ste. Marie, and Kingston. Two in
Ottawa and St. Catharines have been approved
for assistance. Mr. Wells emphasized that gui-
dance will be available to communities wishing
to set up credit -debt counselling agencies where
there is a demonstrated need.

Have To Re -Arrange
Plant Financing
by Carol Hughes
Financing for the expansion of the Bay Road
Sewage Treatment Plant will have to be re-
arranged before the Ontario Municipal Board will
give their approval, Pickering Township Clerk
Doug Plitz told Pickering Township Council
in Committee of the Whole on Monday night.
The Township waited six months for the OMB
hearing, only to be told on Monday their adver-
tisement on how the costs would be shared
throughout the Township was not specific enough.
The advertisement, however, had previously
been approved by them before appearing in the
local press.
Chairman of the Hearing, Mr. Thompson said
the 40 per cent charge over all of the Township
should have been advertised more clearly in the
notice published in the local papers. He said
he felt the method of financing not proper and
should be charged to the property owners abut-
ting onto the sewage trunk lines, who would
benefit from it.
After hearing the objections raised by two
residents of the Township, Miss V. Swan and
Mrs. A. Brown and with the objections raised
by the chairman, the hearing was adjourned and
the Township instructed to try and work out other
means of financing and come up with another
proposal and submit it to the OMB.
Mr. Thompson had said he was under the
impression certain monies were available before
construction, however this was not so and the
entire sum had to be raised by the Township. The
Township had proposed that the $575,000 cost
be shared 40 per cent throughout the Township
and 60 per cent over the sewage area only. This
in fact, means that those in the sewage area
would be paying 84 per cent of the cost and the
remaining 16 per cent would be picked upby the
rural area.
Reeve John Williams said he did not know of any
fairer way for the cost to be spread out. The
60/40 split is the residential/commercial/ in-
dustrial assessment sought by the Township
and it is felt that industry benefits the whole
Township through tax assessment.
Consequently, this 40 per cent ratio was used
in spreading a portion of the cost over the en-
tire Township.
Reeve Williams said this was the same re-
action the Township got from the Board when it
initiated its water expansion program and it was
through political action the OMB finally changed
its view on who should pick up the costs.
The Reeve asked for Council's permission to
meet with J.A. Kennedy, the O.M.B. Chairman
and to explain to him personally their method
of financing and the consequences to the Town-
ship if the plant is not expanded immediately.
He said all development will come to a halt
in the Township unless the plant is expanded.
Presently, there is only sufficient sewer capa-
city for the proposed development at Liverpool
Road and Brock Road.
The Reeve said "When you stop growth, as the
OMB is doing by their action, you stop every-
thing ir the municipality". He pointed out the
Rosebank area is circulating a petition now
for local improvements and once sewers are
in that area, "you can expect expansion and
development".
Proposals are also under way for 731 apart-
ment units west of West Shore and there is a
72 -acre development proposed for the south
side of Oklahoma Drive.
Councillor Ron Chatten also pointed out the
OMB approved and encouraged the Township's
buying of undeveloped land for industrial pur-
poses and questioned whether they now expect
the Township to pipe the sewage out into the
lake.
Councillor Jean McPherson, who has not sup-
ported the payment arrangements, said the
people in the north are consistently being
eked to pay for things they will never have the
use of or benefit of. She said she would like
to see concrete proposals for all this indus-
trial land and developments before approving
of the expansion. However, Reeve Williams said
"it is too late then to consider sewage ex-
pansion", indicating the facilities must be there
in the first place to attract growth.
Reeve Williams will try to arrange an early
meeting with Mr. Kennedy.
